Réka Kiraly

Take one 14 year old boy mad about BMX, stunts and cycling and leave him for a while in the country with his friends and what do you get? Six stitches in his chin and a broken hand needing a pot for three months!!! Au revoir le vélo...bonjour tons of unfinished homework and reports to write....for mum!

Which is why it's been a bit quieter round here...

Anyway, the weather's glorious (25°C), the kids have gone back to school and I have lots of finds to share, starting with Réka Kiraly's fun, colourful prints!

Hungarian-born Réka Kiraly lives and works in Helsinki. She has a very distinctive graphic style, combining bold lines and colour with imaginary creatures inspired by her everyday finds, long walks, the sea and Northern light. Her striking black and white patterns are ideal for young children,
